NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Luigi Martinati Important Added Info: Note that the IMDb lists that this movie first played in Italy in 1938. But we can find no other record of that release, and no sign of any posters from that supposed release. So we are listing this poster as the first release from 1945 (the poster is dated). If anyone has any information about that supposed 1938 release (especially where it played and if posters were created), please e-mail us and we will post it here. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept the uncertainty as to whether it is from the first release or from a 1945 re-release! Note that it is difficult to accurately date Italian posters, and some unmarked re-release posters can be extremely difficult to distinguish from first releases, so please bear that in mind before you place a bid. We used our best information to date this poster, but we can't always guarantee that the Italian posters we sell are not from an unmarked re-release, but this will only prove to be true in a very tiny number of cases.
